I'm a broke musician that's how come it takes a year to put a few grand into a sportster so the choice cuts are something I never can really afford. I haven't had an actual steak in about 20 years but I eat deer every year heh heh. We just cut up affordable beef roasts for steak. We get the briskets at Wal-Mart. If you get there at like 7 a.m they just have put them out and all the mom and pop BBQ hustle joints buy them all if you aren't there and a couple crap ones might be left. Find one that folds up good and I have had pretty good luck for the money. Junior spent about $45 on this one and he agreed it was among the better briskets I was able to squeak out on my homemade improvised smoker.
Well, one day maybe i will send you one, and then when you smoke it, I can have half the flat. I am a flat guy. When i am trimming a brisket now, I just separate them because i am aggressive on the deckle, so I smoke the point for the wife, and the flat is mine.
That would be way too generous of you. I generally don't accept stuff above my pay grade and to tell you the truth as the guy doing the smoking I have become like a weed dealer who only wants the green hit. I only want the tip of the point, mostly to test my work, and then I'm less enthused about everything thereafter unless it's brisket tacos or brisket chili.
Yeah if I had to pick my favorite decade it would be the ‘70s. Hell, just from ‘78 has a ton of great ‘new’ bands. VH, The Police, The Cars, Dire Straits. And all those killer live albums…we just talked about Frampton but Foghat Live, Robin Trower Live are killer and bunch of others.
Listen here, I ain't smoking a brisket you sent me unless you ride down here to eat some of it. I'm like you, smoke a brisket every 3 or 4 months and that's plenty. I'm already in overload mode cause I did one around memorial day, lol
Yeah, Lynyrd Skynyrd and CCR were always in the background for me growing up. Good stuff that stuck with me.
